7 Innovation Partnership Zones WA Economic Development Commission Challenge: lots of innovation assets at the local level, but no coordination. Assumption: innovation happens at the grassroots level. Solution: identify a consensus vision based on local assets and capabilities and create organizational, leadership structure to coordinate and align local efforts among businesses, ports, higher education, local government, tribes, and other stakeholders. IPZ Universities Community and Technical Colleges Private sector businesses PortsTribesChambers Local government Local development organizations Other stakeholders Communit y colleges Universities Tribes Ports Local government Private sector Non- profits
